Hi,
I‘m sorry that you finally found one and it‘s not what you have hoped for. May I ask which website you ordered it from if not US? I am stalking as well and I never see it available.
thank you!
I don‘t think yours can be a return with that datecode... It is probably just not made as „perfect“

Hi. It’s Singapore website . I think I’ve been stalking for months since sept. I’ve only seen the mono avail only for a few minutes randomly. Which is y it’s harder to accept for me.. took so long to see a add to bag but unfortunately defective .

does anyone know if LV recycles returns ? I mean if I return will it be avail for sale online after I return it? I pity the next person getting it ...

Ok, so my theory is they put “defective” in some way bags online and the perfect ones go to the boutique. I had a few of them and upon arrival one was like that, but mine was made in USA. I returned it. If they know their bags are defective and they don’t want to put it in their boutiques they should sell it with a discount. They don’t so we should only accept a bag that we are satisfied with. They are not so hard to come by. After some stalking PM reverse appear at least once a week. I stocked them so much. I was able to get 4 of them but returned them each time because of defects and finally I know this bag is not for me. I didn’t also love that color on me. Once I went to the boutique to pick up my PSM and just asked if they have PM reverse and she said they did. This one was perfect but I took my PSM home with me.

I think you may be on to something because I just returned a defective PM reverse yesterday and a defective monogram Noe BB last month. One was an online purchase and one was phone purchase but both fulfilled from warehouses. I am hoping the pochette accessories I just ordered online isn't defective as well. If it is, I will not buy online anymore.

Like I promised, a few comparisons during the daylight. It is definitely taupe color. I am seriously questioning this one. I have my Majestueux in Verone in suhali leather, so I am not sure if I "need" this little one as well... (Do we really need so many bags? Of course not! But we WANT them, right?:graucho:) I also passed on Cherry Berry color, too similar with Scarlet, Cherise and Freesia IMHO. (But of course I would love to have all of them, but I have a very nice palette of colors already.) I will see, my better-half says: "Think about it!", what in other words means "Keep it!" Oh, decisions, decisions...

I like this color very much! Yesterday I have bought it too. It's really more grey than beige and it's similar to Verone (I have had the Suhali Verone Lockit).
I would go for it, it's another style then the Majestueux! :-) And the color is so versatile!

Hey y'all!
I’m still on the hunt for a PM mono :sad:
By now seriously considering pre-loved bags.
But maaaan... some scetchy things out there for sure.

Do PMs come out with the inner label NOT stating “Made in France”??? It that possible?!
Date code is supposedly 2018.
So that’s even more alarming.


Edit: never mind.
I just found out that there are at least two fake bags on the site!!! They come with the same fake receipt.
And one seller even had the audacity to send me more FAKE detail photos of the bag that don’t even match the other photos from the initial offer.
Had to be too good to be true.

thanks for your advice.

I guess my head is telling me to return but the heart is wanting to keep it . Over here, the reverse is hardly avail unlike the US website. It’s ridiculous.. the date code is DR0220, which makes it fresh from France like last week??? !!!!!! So I’m guessing it shouldn’t be a boutique return lying around for some time.

Hmmm... if I return it’s back to stalking again

I was thinking exactly what you are at the time, like I will never get it again etc. I know it is hard to let go. I didn’t know it was harder to get this PM purse in Singapore then US. That may change things. My SA said when I went to return mine with similar “defect” that I can try to put my items in it and see if it straighten out. Maybe it will helps. If everything else is otherwise perfect it is something to consider. The most important is that the glazing looks good and alignment. Hope I could help.

I am very convinced they do it. Few days ago I got key pouch DE and there is a scratch or an indentation on the canvas. I am returning it. It is ridiculous how much they charge and the quality is not there. At this point LV should open an outlet store, not increase their prices!

Thank you! I decided to return it. I did not like the quality. I received it by mail and after detail inspection I discovered that both corners were already scratched. Disappointing. I will enjoy my PM in Papyrus, I guess.

Enyoy your Papyrus! I'm waiting for my PM in Tourterelle, it wasn't available in store, so I hope it will be in good condition :-(
I have payed for it and my SA will send me the bag if it arrives in the next days...

The glazing is coming off of both sides of the flap. Do you think they will repair it or give me store credit? It was made in 2018. I thought they had corrected that problem that year but I guess not. I also have always had a bandeau wrapped around the handle flap.View attachment 4642032View attachment 4642033

Hi, so sorry about the glazing on your PM. Can I ask you where was your bag made? I have PM Made in Italy and the canvas looks so similar to yours now I worry I will have the same issue. They will give you new bag I believe.

Reading all this on PM reverse getting me a little nervous. I’m getting one delivered tomorrow from a LV store not a warehouse.
I’ve had my mono PM for almost 2 years and other than replacing the handle when I first got it, it’s been problem free.

When your bag arrives look it over and if you are satisfied with its appearance then just use it and enjoy it. I’ve had mine now for a while and I’ve had no issues.
